Was at the 'ring at the weekend, had a fantastic time in the Trophy, definitely the most fun I've had there yet :D
Was hugely impressed with the Pagid Blues, they really did give incredible stopping power.
Got a clip of the last lap of the day, but wasn't the fastest. My best was a 9:08 with...
My 04 182 is going in for MOT work tomorrow and one of the rear coil springs is broken, renault asked if it has the cup suspenton or not? how do i tell??? as the 182 spring is £85 and the cup spring is £160 my car is a straight 182 as far as i know, no stripes, half leather. headlight washers...
This kit connects to the standard head unit and allows retainability of some of the stereo's steering wheel controls when using it in conjection with an ipod.
The scroll wheel on the back of the steering wheel controls can be used to skip through and roll back songs and scroll through the cover...

A while ago when we had all the serious downpour in cumbria My T leaked in through the boot into the drivers foot well - out came the interior to give it a full drying. Since then it has been fine until..... I was on the way back for surrey the other week and it rained on the way home.
Got back...
As you guys know i've been having some problems with 224 recently, mainly with the nearside front. Found out today that that particular damper has had it. Can push the car down with ease but the drivers side is still fine.
I have seen that I should look at getting some other suspension bits...
so recently Mr Clarksons words have started to ring true.
its not the noise i dont like, i love music in the car and i love listening to the massive suck of the V6 air box on sunday mornings.
its just motorway road noise thats starting to get to me. having to shout at passengers, so i might...
I am trying to change rear discs.... Got the new ones at Unipart but they didn't give me the bearings... How does all this work??
Do I buy new ones and get them fitted by someone with a press?
or
Use the old ones... How do I get them out the old ones.... do I need a press?
You guys know what...
Over the last few weeks I've noticed a noise coming from the front right of the car when I'm turning in to the left. I wouldn't describe it as a 'knock', it's more of a 'whump-whump-whump' if that makes any sense (it does in my head at least).
My first instinct was a wheel bearing on it's way...
Firstly, heelo I'm new.
I owned a 172 cup from 2003 to 2006 and now I have an opportunity to purchase Trophy number 116.
Does anyone know anything about this particular trophy? The reg is ET05 HHX if that helps. First registered in July 2005 and supplied by Lookers Colchester.
Do all 182's...
Hey guys does anyone have a nearside front arch liner for sale? (The bit in front of the wheel that goes under the front bumber and fog.)
PM me if anyone does.
Morning .
Just wondering as anyone got slight tints alround and does it cut out the heat were getting atm. Coz I dunno about you guys but our non UV protective windows are causing the cars to hot box really badly.
also I don't want my steering wheel to suffer much more.
Thanks for any help.
An interesting tyre review in this month's EVO (as well as a 20th birthday special on the Clio sports, with the Williams preferred).
The tyre review caught my eye because it featured (an evolution of) a tyre which a few years ago highlighted to me the importance of tyres and the effect they can...
Alright guys, my wheel nuts are looking a bit worse for wear with bits of rust poking through.
What colour paint best matches the wheels and where can I order it from? Do I need to apply primer first also?
Cheers.
Good piece in this months EVO (Aug) regarding the Clio's 20th birthday, featuring the Williams (1),172, 200 cup, Trophy & V6 (255) group test with excessive "3 wheel action"
guess who won...
Can anyone help me? I have now found a third bearing ball in the footwell...I'm worried it has something to do with the steering which is not rough or stiff when i steer but i have heard a click now & again (prob as the little balls pop themselves out).
Just been over to my ever helpfull...
Has any one had to replace the thumb grips on the steering wheel in the trophy? if so can you suggest and point me in the right direction to where I can buy the them from? I have spotted a link to a site on here before but can't seem to find it now. Also does anyone know the recommended tyre...
Spoke to Mark yesterday as i'm keen to purchase some of his stuff in the next couple of months.
Whilst i was on the phone i thought it would be best to ask about a group buy - he seemed to think that 10% off would be ok for 10 confirmed orders. But im sure we could get something for 5 as well...
Hey guys,
The Sachs are coming off '380' later as they're booked in with Ben on the 8th. I've noticed a lot of people saying that they've had the struts un-pinned to allow adjustment to the damping. I've had a quote of £25.00 each + vat, is it worth me getting this done while they're away?
A new software from fastchip 'launch control' I dont think il be uploading this calibration onto my ecu, however it only costs 10euro..

After owning several 106 gti’s and Saxo vts’s over the years, followed by an impreza, clio 182 cup and a FF 182, I am now stuck with what to buy.
I will be honest here I have always wanted a trophy ever since my first RB back in 2007, problem being they were still serious priced at over 10k...
Hi everyone, i have recently been getting a squeeking sound from what i think is the passenger top mount / all the way down to the wheel ( i cannot pin point where the noise is).
It happens when its dry as when its raining the noise goes away so all i can presume is that something needs...
I believe you can get a (?) mechanical Quaiffe diff fitted to a 182...? Around £1000 fitted. Meant to be a very useful mod.
Has anyone got any experience/knowledge?

Hi everyone, as stated I've had an intermittent problem since i've owned the car. Got it checked out once before but nothing was found so I kinda just ignored it but when going along the M27 this morning it seemed to go mad.
A dull drone started up from the nearside front and got louder and...
